The Scent of Petals
The serene shade of the serenading trees,
rippling in the cadence of the spring breeze,
creates the lattice of yearning impression,
filling the space of my fathomless depression.
The bursting golden beams of the sunset blaze,
slicing through the shimmer of the foliage maze,
carry your euphoric essence to my heart,
the harsh time passing me by couldn’t thwart.
The cascading flicker of your sparkling smile,
caressed by the jasmine zephyr for a while,
flows with your fragrance through moonshine
of the ardent night to suffuse the sense of mine.
When in spring the chromatic strands of floral hue
design the panorama of my longing anew,
the buds unfurl the aroma of your redolence in spree,
I perceive you emit the scent of petals for me.
